At a September town hall posted to YouTube, hosted by the Wisconsin Conservative Coalition (WCC), a nonpartisan association of three conservative groups from the northeast part of the state, Goeben participated on a panel with Jacque and Reps. Nate Gustafson (R-Omro) and Paul Tittl (R-Manitowoc).

It is taking out the molar pregnancy, ectopic pregnancy all of these things that we wouldnt think of that as an abortion, but when there is an election we get killed on that on an emotional stance of, Oh, this woman was going to die because she couldnt get her health care, Goeben said.

Democrats would need to win an additional five seats in the Assembly and an additional two in the Senate to flip each of those houses in 2026....................
